So, life has become hectic for me. I've put the photography aspect of my hobbies on the back burner for the last 6 months (mainly due to the fact that I havent had a digital SLR to work with - I finally have enough money to start investing in one of those!) and I apologize that I havent had much time to come on here or add new work! My music is on the verge of taking off, and I've been concentrating on that. KEEP YOUR EARS POSTED for Damage!! anyways, I should be purchasing a new digital SLR in the next few weeks. any advice as to what type of camera is best, or what types of lenses I should look into getting would be appreciated!

So... I now have scanned copies of five prints that I have done in my portfolio. They look OK, but I cant seem to figure out how to crop the borders (the scanned images have the edges of the paper - it was a 6x9 print - and also more extra space... ) on photoshop... Any suggestions for how to do this would be appreciated, since I'm still learning to use Photoshop. Anyways, as you can see from my submission Black Violin, the borders are rampant. All of the scanned images so far look like this. Hope someone can help me! Dave

I've been slow to add stuff to this. I now have about 85 pics, and not enough time to edit them on my 30 day photoshop trial haha... so far I've done 5. They've all been added here. Still looking for a scanner so I can add my prints that I've done by hand in the darkroom... any comments, suggestions, criticisms, etc would be appreciated for what Ive done so far. I'm also not sure I'm posting them in the right categories... oh well
